Abstract

This paper assesses the influence of exchange rates volatility among Asian countries on intra-regional trade. Results indicate that exchange rates stabilization through regional monetary cooperation is an important stake, or even a prerequisite, to a deepening of trade integration of the region. Analysis relates volatility, estimated with an ARCH/GARCH process, to trade within a gravitational model.
